WWE legend 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin recalls unplanned moment when he destroyed Corvette on live TV
WWE Hall of Famer 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin recently revealed his pick for the best moment in his memorable feud with Vince McMahon.
One of the greatest on-screen rivalries in WWE history saw Austin mercilessly hunt Vince McMahon. Their storyline led to several unforgettable backstage moments, including a popular spot where Austin filled McMahon's $50,000 Corvette with cement.
During his recent conversation with The Wrestling Classic, Steve Austin was asked to pick his favorite moment from his feud with Vince McMahon. He chose the aforementioned segment and revealed details of backstage planning that went into the execution.
They didn't prepare for the passenger side's window to explode but went along with the event as it all happened on live television. Austin was quoted as saying:
"I had to fold down all those gates, hit the lever, and then had me a mark to hit and that was all done on live TV so there's no room for error. The cherry on top was when we planned that out, we never knew that the passenger side window would blow like it did." (WrestlingINC)
Austin also shared that the life of WWE Superstars can be hard when they have to stay on the road for so long. However, he insisted that there would be good and bad days before stating that his work on Monday Night RAW felt like therapy.
